Legislative objective in reduction of car accidents caused by electronic devices
Georgia has made progress, in the fight against the distracted driving caused by electronic devices such as mobile phones, iPads, laptop computers and other devices, the increasing attention of the driver from the road and caused serious accidents driving distracted.
Georgia recently enacted a law that prohibits talk on cell phones by drivers under 18 while driving, and bans texting while driving for all drivers. However died House Bill 67, which would call hands free any use of the mobile phone with the exception of banned in the Chamber of Deputies during the 2011 session.
Speak with the number of form apps now available for mobile phones and text-messaging one ever-shrinking part of cell phone use. This realization led to propose new York, what would be the most aggressive proposed legislation distracted electronic devices to avoid driving accidents. New York is trying to pass legislation that still consider a violation of an electronic device while driving would make. This legislation is intended to reduce themselves to a variety of applications of electronic devices while driving including:

A confirmation of the growing impact of electronic devices in every aspect of our lives is the New York law. Cell phone use during the journey to discourage some applications are developed, but their use is voluntary.
A number of technological developments have been proposed that turn off the wi-fi and our mobile phone signals in vehicles. These safeguards together with legislation proposed, which would prohibit any use of electronic devices, while the risk of serious Atlanta drive could reduce and Georgia car accidents caused by distracted drivers. This approach has some stumbling blocks. Many users of mobile phones and iPads are these electronic devices for use, that some are reluctant to ban such as GPS and music. It is unclear how the enforcement of the law of New York would have a use for such purposes as these devices.
Although it is unclear whether changes in safety technology or legislation, or a combination of both is the best way to solve the problem of distracted driving, it is clear that this is an issue, which continue to grow in response to the growing spread of these electronic devices and apps to increase their use.
